I also find it handy to have the following snippet in ~/.cvspkgsrc.
This allows me to check out any package from Fedora's CVS and use
'make srpm-md5' in an F-* branch and get a suitable srpm for EL-*.

# use this to build an srpm locally, with md5 checksums
RPM_MD5_OPTS = --define "_source_filedigest_algorithm md5" \
	       --define "_binary_filedigest_algorithm md5"
srpm-md5: sources $(TARGETS)
	$(RPM_WITH_DIRS) $(RPM_MD5_OPTS) --nodeps -bs $(SPECFILE)
